Jiujiu smiled and sat next to Chen Xiaoyao, while Zhang Jinkang sat next to Jiujiu.
This way, Zhang Jinkang was facing the strange man.
When everyone was seated, Chen Xiaoyao directly called out to the old woman who had brought them here. "Auntie Hua, when will the food be ready? I'm starving."
The old woman did not answer Chen Xiaoyao's question, but in less than ten minutes, she delivered a steaming dinner.
Chen Xiaoyao distributed the chopsticks as she pointed at the food in front of her and said to the strange man, "Try Auntie Hua's cooking."
After greeting the strange man, Chen Xiaoyao turned to look at Jiujiu and greeted her with a smile, "Little Jiujiu, what do you like to eat? I'll ask Auntie Hua to make more for you next time."
Jiujiu smiled shyly. "I like everything. I'm not picky."
"Not picky?" Chen Xiaoyao frowned. "How can a person not be picky? Don't be shy. Tell me what you like."
"Thank you, sister. I like to eat everything." Jiujiu smiled innocently. "My parents divorced when I was young, and I followed my mother. My family was poor, so I ate whatever I had. I'm really not picky."
After hearing Jiujiu's story, a trace of pity appeared on Chen Xiaoyao's face. She quickly hugged Jiujiu and touched Jiujiu's cheek. "My poor Jiujiu. I'll dote on you in the future."
Jiujiu smiled and said in Chen Xiaoyao's arms, "Thank you, sister."
Chen Xiaoyao hugged Jiujiu for a while and let go of her. She pointed at the food in front of her and said to Jiujiu, "Eat. Don't starve."
Jiujiu chuckled and picked up her chopsticks to start eating.
Seeing that Jiujiu had started eating, Chen Xiaoyao also picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
Zhang Jinkang naturally followed suit.
During the meal, Jiujiu kept observing the strange man from the corner of her eye.
At first glance, the strange man did indeed look like an immortal. However, when he was eating, Jiujiu noticed that his teeth were different from a normal person's.
His buff was like the teeth of a shark. Every tooth was very sharp. When he opened and closed them, even bones could be crushed in an instant.
And the most terrifying thing was that even though he had crushed the bone, he did not make any other sound, giving off a sinister and terrifying feeling.
After the meal, the stranger wiped the oil stains on the corner of his mouth and looked at Chen Xiaoyao. "I'm going back."
Chen Xiaoyao smiled. "See you tomorrow."
The man nodded slightly and left quickly.
After the man left, Jiujiu pretended to be curious and asked Chen Xiaoyao, "Sister, who is he?"
Chen Xiaoyao pursed her lips and smiled. She looked at Jiujiu and said, "He is the priest of Li Village, Xiao Yao."
"Sacrifice?" Jiujiu looked in the direction of the man's departure in surprise and muttered, "I didn't expect the priest to be so young."
"Young?" Chen Xiaoyao sneered. She seemed to have thought of something and was lost in thought for a while. After a while, she patted Jiujiu's head and said with a smile, "Little Jiujiu, you have such a sweet mouth. If he heard it, he would like you too."
Jiujiu was speechless.
After saying this, Chen Xiaoyao got up and walked upstairs.
Looking at Chen Xiaoyao's back, Jiujiu was deep in thought.
After the meal, Zhang Jinkang and Jiujiu naturally did not need to stay downstairs. The two of them went upstairs together.
At night, the two of them naturally stayed in the same room.
Before going to bed, Jiujiu was still wondering if Li Yu would come back in the middle of the night.
However, the night passed and Li Yu did not appear. Jiujiu guessed that Li Yu might have met with misfortune, so she did not continue to think about it.
The next morning, Jiujiu washed up and went downstairs with Zhang Jinkang.
As soon as they arrived downstairs, they saw Chen Xiaoyao with exquisite makeup.
Chen Xiaoyao was usually beautiful. At this moment, after carefully applying makeup, she was so beautiful that one could not take their eyes off her.
Sensing Jiujiu's amazed gaze, Chen Xiaoyao covered her mouth and smiled in satisfaction. She looked at Jiujiu and asked, "Am I beautiful?"
Jiujiu nodded. "Sister, you're really beautiful."
"Good girl." Chen Xiaoyao giggled and took out a lollipop from her pocket and handed it to Jiujiu again.
Jiujiu took Chen Xiaoyao's lollipop and stuffed it into her pocket again.
In the past, Chen Xiaoyao would leave directly after eating.
But today, after eating, Chen Xiaoyao was still sitting in the same place. She held her chin with one hand and quietly watched Jiujiu and Zhang Jinkang.
After Jiujiu and Zhang Jinkang finished eating, Chen Xiaoyao lifted her head from her hand and looked at Jiujiu with a smile. "Little Jiujiu, sister will take you to a place today."
Jiujiu was stunned. "Where?"
"I'll take you to play with Xiaoyao." Speaking of this, Chen Xiaoyao muttered in dissatisfaction, "I told him that you're good, but he didn't believe me. Today, I'll take you to let him see how good you are, so that he won't have any other thoughts."
These words were very meaningful.
Jiujiu turned her head and looked at Zhang Jinkang. After the two looked at each other, Jiujiu asked tentatively, "Sister, can I take Zhang Jinkang with me?"
Hearing that Jiujiu wanted to take Zhang Jinkang with her, Chen Xiaoyao's brows twisted in an instant. After thinking for a moment, she reluctantly nodded. "Okay."
Chen Xiaoyao said this sentence very reluctantly, as if taking Zhang Jinkang was a very difficult thing for her.
However, the result was that she could take Zhang Jinkang with her.
Zhang Jinkang and Jiujiu followed Chen Xiaoyao to find the priest she mentioned, Xiaoyao.
What surprised Jiujiu was that the way to find Xiaoyao turned out to be the way to the River God Temple.
The three people walked all the way to the River God Temple.
There was only one River God Temple before, but suddenly there was a courtyard house next to it.
Chen Xiaoyao walked to the door of the courtyard house with ease and raised her hand. Bang, bang, bang.
The door was quickly opened from the inside, but the person who opened the door was not Xiaoyao, but two little kids.
The appearance of the two little kids was exactly the same as the statue that Jiujiu saw in the River God Temple before.
Jiujiu's back was instantly covered with a layer of cold sweat.
When perceiving Jiujiu's gaze, the two little kids' mouths were gently raised. It was exactly the same as the scene in the River God Temple that day that Jiujiu saw.
Obviously, the two of them were innocent little kids, but the way they smiled was creepy.
Jiujiu only felt that the hair on her body stood up. If it weren't for her strong psychological quality, she would definitely run away.
Chen Xiaoyao touched the heads of the two little kids like touching puppies. She turned back and waved to Jiujiu, "Little Jiujiu, come here. I will introduce you to the little kid."
This place was so big. It was clear at a glance who the little kid in Chen Xiaoyao's mouth was.
Jiujiu braced herself and walked to Chen Xiaoyao's side.
Seeing Jiujiu coming over, Chen Xiaoyao intimately took Jiujiu's hand, pointed to the two children in front of her, and said with a smile, "Jiujiu, this is Xiaohe, this is Xiaohe, Xiaohe, Xiaoshen, this is sister's favorite little sister, Jiujiu. Come and say hello to Jiujiu."
